BBC Breakfast host Naga Munchetty has been happily married to her husband, James Haggar, since 2007, but she recently opened up about her past relationships and the lessons she’s learned in love. While she didn’t reveal the secret to a long-lasting marriage, she shared a refreshing perspective on breakups, encouraging people not to fear when relationships come to an end.
Reflecting on her early dating life, the 50-year-old recalled that romance wasn’t always straightforward for her. As reported by the Daily Express, she shared, “I was never fancied at school. I didn’t have a boyfriend until I was 17,” she told The Big Issue’s Adrian Lobb in a candid interview for Letter to My Younger Self. However, when she did find love for the first time, it was an experience she treasured. “But he was wonderful, my first boyfriend. I was with him for a couple of years. I think it’s so good to have boyfriends and girlfriends when you’re younger because you learn to accept that things don’t necessarily last, and they don’t have to.
